Molecular allergic diagnostics is a modern and most reliable method for diagnosing allergies, which makes it possible to select the proper and accurate components of allergen-specific immunotherapy (ASIT) and develop recommendations for diet and elimination measures.
For allergen-specific immunotherapy (ASIT), all types of pollen, indoor and insect allergens are available that can be found in our region:
- tree pollen (birch, alder, hazel, etc.)
- grass pollen and meadow grass pollen (timothy, hedgehog team, chaff, ryegrass, etc.)
- weed pollen (wormwood, ragweed, sunflower)
- indoor allergens (house dust mites, mold fungi, in particular, alternapia, Kladospopium, acpergillus)
- food allergens (milk, egg, wheat, fish, chicken, beef, casein, citrus, chocolate, etc.)
- animal/pet allergens (cat, dog)
- insect allergy (insect poisoning)
In our clinic, experienced allergists treat allergies using the safest products of European manufacturers, individual allergens (allergoids) manufactured by Inmunotek (Spain) in the sublingual and injection forms, as well as tablets of immunotherapy offered by Lofarma (Italy)
Tablet form is convenient for regular use. Allergens of the Lais series (a mixture of tree pollen, a mixture of meadow grasses, ragweed, wormwood, house dust mites, cat) have shown their high efficiency and safety.
